Dude, you came in only after Arri? Congrats! That's a real feather in the cap.
Btw haven't really tried all of Cluster v4 - tried the first one, it locked up my cam. But from preliminary tests,
I much prefer v3. Will do more legwork. As always thanks for the inspired innovation
@driftwood .. any chance of a crossfire variation optimised for bluescreen?
@rajamalik I am in the process of going through my tests from last month to upload some of the files. Unfortunately, I tested Quantum v9c but not v9b.
I added some of the original MTS files from my testing last month to my GH2 Hack Reference page. http://perlichtman.com/pasdenapulse/wordpress/gh2-hack-reference/
These are the video files that I used to make the matrix of screenshots a while back in this thread. I have only uploaded 6 of the files so far - more to come later.
@thepalalias today i am gonna test quantum 9b new sedna adapted matrix....any plans to compare new quantum v9 with sedna A????
@driftwood i patched back to quantum v9b new sedna adapted matrix gonna test it today...will upload few videos soon.... thx
Nice Nick! You gotta rule them all xD By the way: Thanks for all that Work done!
@driftwood That's great you got to see it.
Was it a difficult choice picking the Arri? I happen to love the look of that camera. Also, do you think some of your latest settings have in any way significantly bettered the Quantum settings you provided for the shootout?
Attended the London screening of Zacuto's Revenge of the Great Camera Shootout 2012 today at Soho Screening Rooms and it was great to meet fellow GH2 users down there. Without being told which camera was which we were asked to pick our fav 5 shots produced between the Iphone, 7D, Sony F65, Arri Alexa, Sony F3, Canon cs300, Red Epic, Sony FS100 and the good old GH2. I chose the GH2 (using Quantum 9B) as my second favourite ranked shot - choosing the Arri as the overall best looking image - but like other reports was completely taken aback by how suprisingly good even the iphone was. It just goes to show with the right lighting, setup, lens, grade and care you can make the minnows match the big boys.
Having a chat later on with the team I got an indication as to which top Hollywood film director preferred the look of the GH2 over all the rest - he's made some of the most inspiring films of the last 40 odd years... but I promised the guys I wouldn't reveal his name as the first of the web series of documents comes out tomorrow... they'll hopefully reveal all tomorrow... Gotta say it made me smile though! :-)

@driftwood & @LPowell I just tested Crossfire variation 2 'Green Screen matrix' set to 24h. It looks good but it shows up as 24fps in after effects not 23.98
